I John 5:13-17
Literal Translation
Introduction
13) These things I wrote to you, the ones believing into the name of the Son of God, in
order that you might know that you have eternal life, and in order that you might
believe into the name of the Son of God.
14) And this is the confidence which we have toward Him, that if we should ask
anything according to His will, He is hearing us.

Literal Translation (continued)
15) And if we know that He is hearing us, whatever we should ask, we know that we
have the requests which we have asked from Him.
16) If anyone should see his brother sinning a sin not toward death, he will ask, and He
will give life, to the one not sinning toward death. There is a sin toward death. I do
not say that he should ask concerning that.
17) All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not toward death.
